[Verse 1]
9 to 5 and 5 to 9
Ain't gonna to take it, it's our time
We want the world and we want it now
We're gonna take it anyhow
[Chorus]
We want the airwaves (that's right, that's right)
We want the airwaves (that's right, that's right)
We want the airwaves, baby
If rock is gonna stay alive
[Post-Chorus]
Oh yeah, well all right
Let's rock, tonight
All night
Oh yeah, well all right
Let's rock, tonight
All night
[Verse 2]
Where's your guts and will to survive?
Don't you want to keep rock n' roll music alive?
Mr. Programmer, I got my hammer
Gonna smash my smash my radio (oh)
[Chorus]
We want the airwaves (that's right, that's right)
We want the airwaves (that's right, that's right)
We want the airwaves, baby
If rock's gonna stay alive
[Post-Chorus]
Oh yeah, well all right
Let's rock, tonight
All night
Oh yeah,well all right
Let's rock, tonight
All night
[Outro]
We want the airwaves
We want the airwaves
We want the airwaves
We want the airwaves
We want the airwaves, baby
All's Quiet on the Eastern Front Lyrics
[Chorus]
Watch the, watch the way I walk
Can't you think my movements talk
Watch the, watch the way I walk
Can't you think my movements talk
[Verse 1]
See me silently quietly creep
I am too amped up to sleep
Lamp rays shining down
Street lamps make that buzzin' sound
Subway's creakin' down below
Garbage piled up and ready to go
(Oh)
Lock the windows, the gates on
Taxi in the distance coming along
Stalking the streets till the break of day
New York beauty take my breath away
Hear some cats but dogs don't bark
Cool cats strolling after dark
Alright
[Chorus]
Watch the, watch the way I walk
Can't you think my movements talk
Watch the watch the way I walk
Can't you think my movements talk
[Verse 2]
Shaky lock and kicky door
Smoky air that I adore
Down in the alley is where I hunt
All is quiet on the eastern front
Stalking the streets till the break of day
New York beauty take my breath away
Oh
[Chorus]
Watch the, watch the way I walk
Can't you think my movements talk
Watch the, watch the way I walk
Can't you think my movements talk
Can't you think my movements talk
Can't you think my movements talk
The KKK Took My Baby Away Lyrics
[Verse]
She went away for the holidays
Said she's going to L.A
But she never got there
She never got there
She never got there, they say
She went away for the holidays
Said she's going to L.A
But she never got there
She never got there
She never got there, they say
The KKK took my baby away
They took her away
Away from me
The KKK took my baby away
They took her away
Away from me
The KKK took my baby away
They took her away
Away from me
The KKK took my baby away
They took my girl
They took my baby away
Don't Go Lyrics
[Chorus 1]
She was everything to me oh yeah
She was everything to me
But how I ever ever let her go
I'll never know
She was everything to me oh yeah
She was everything to me
Still how I ever ever let her go
I'll never know
[Chorus 2]
Don't go, don't go, baby don't go
Don't go, don't go, baby don't go
Don't go, don't go
Don't leave me this way
Hey, hey, hey baby
Don't go, don't go, baby don't go
Don't go, don't go, baby don't go
Don't go, don't go
Don't leave me this way
Hey, hey, hey baby
[Chorus 1]
She was everything to me oh yeah
She was everything to me
But how I ever ever let her go
I'll never know
She was everything to me oh yeah
She was everything to me
Still how I ever ever let her go
I'll never know
She was everything to me
The sun, the earth, the moon my baby
Still how I ever ever let her go
I'll never know
[Chorus 2]
Don't go, don't go, baby don't go
Don't go, don't go, baby don't go
Don't go, don't go
Don't leave me this way
Hey, hey, hey baby
Don't go, don't go, baby don't go
Don't go, don't go, baby don't go
Don't go, don't go
Don't leave me this way
Hey, hey, hey baby
[Bridge]
But she wouldn't do what I wanted her to
She wouldn't do it for me
A-no-no
[Chorus 2]
Don't go, don't go, baby don't go
Don't go, don't go, baby don't go
Don't go, don't go
Don't leave me this way
Hey, hey, hey baby
Don't go, don't go, baby don't go
Don't go, don't go, baby don't go
Don't go, don't go
Don't leave me this way
Hey, hey, hey baby
[Outro]
Don't go
Don't go
Don't go
You Sound Like You're Sick Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Well I cannot understand
Anything about you
Help you if I can
What can I do
[Chorus]
Here is your new home
That is where you must be
In the institution
Cause you are so lazy
[Verse 2]
But if you must act up
Again & again
Cause everybody knows
You are a hopeless problem
[Chorus]
Here is your new home
That is where you must be
In the institution
Cause you are so lazy
[Verse 3]
You sound like you are sick
You look like your sick too
You sound like you are sick
But if you must act up
You sound like you are sick
Well I cannot understand
Anything about you
[Chorus]
You sound like you are sick
You look like you are sick too
You sound like you are sick
You sound like you are sick
You look like you are sick too
Well you sound like you are sick
You sound like you are sick
It's Not My Place Lyrics
[Verse 1]
My mom and dad are always fighting
And it's getting very unexciting
To get a good job you need the proper schooling
Now who the hell do ya think you're fooling
[Chorus]
For it's not my place (oh, no!)
No, it's not my place (no, no!)
No, it's not my, not my, not my place
In the 9 to 5 world
And it's not my place
In the 9 to 5 world
It's not my place
In the 9 to 5 world
It's not my place
In the 9 to 5 world
[Verse 2]
Hanging out with Lester Bangs, you all
And Phil Spector really has it all
Uncle Floyd shows on the T.V
Jack Nicholson, Clint Eastwood, 10CC
[Chorus]
For it's not my place (Oh, no!)
No, it's not my place (No, no!)
No, it's not my, not my, not my place
In the 9 to 5 world
And it's not my place
In the 9 to 5 world
It's not my place
In the 9 to 5 world
It's not my place
In the 9 to 5 world
[Verse 3]
Don't want to be a working stiff
Lose my identity
'Cause when it comes to working 9 to 5
There ain't no place for me
In my reality
To me
Vin Scelsa is on the radio
Ramones are hanging out in Kokomo
Roger Corman’s on a talk show
With Allan Arkush and Stephen King, you know
[Chorus]
For it's not my place (Oh, no!)
No, it's not my place (No, no!)
No, it's not my, not my, not my place
In the 9 to 5 world
And it's not my place
In the 9 to 5 world
It's not my place
In the 9 to 5 world
It's not my place
In the 9 to 5 world
She's a Sensation Lyrics
[Intro]
She's a sensation, she's a sensation
She looks so sweet
She's a sensation, she's a sensation
Good enough to eat
She's a sensation
Oh-oh-oh
She looks so fine
She's a sensation, she's a sensation
I'm gonna make her mine
[Verse]
No matter what you do (you do)
I give my heart to you (to you)
And oh-oh-baby
I will give it to you
No matter what they say (they say)
Yeah, we can find a way (they say)
And oh-oh, baby
We can find a way
Oh, I didn't know it
Till I walked you home
That I feel the way I do
And I don't care
What the neighbors say
I always will be true
I always will love you
Love you
A-wo-wo-wo-wo
7-11 Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I met her at the 7-11
Now I am in 7th heaven
Tell me, tell me
Can this be true
I never thought I'd
Meet a girl like you
She was standing by the Space Invaders
So I said can I see you later
Yeah we went for a little spin
Down to the Holiday Inn
[Chorus]
We was young and in love
We was young and in love
And you are the only girl
I am ever thinking of
[Verse 2]
We went down to the record swap
The kids were dancing
To the Blitzkrieg Bop
Bop-shoo-wop shoo-wop shoo-wop
Bop-shoo-wop shoo-wop shoo-wop
Whatever happened to the radio
And where did all the fun songs go
Summer fun, with the Beach Boys on
But we all know what went wrong
Oh-wo-wo
[Chorus]
We was young and in love
We was young and in love
And you're the only girl
I am ever dreaming of
[Verse 3]
And so we went down to the dance
Which turned into a whole romance
And after just one night
I never thought that things could be so right
Oh-no-no-no-no-no-no-no
I kissed her, hugged her
And I said good-bye
Last thing I knew
She wouldn't make it alive
Oncoming car went out of control
It crushed my baby
And it crushed my soul
Now all I have got is sorrow and pain
Standing out here in the rain
The crash, shattering glass
The sirens, and pain
Is driving me insane oh-yeah
[Chorus]
We was young and in love
We was young and in love
And you are the only girl
I am ever thinking of
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
We was young and in love
We was young and in love
And you are the only girl
I am ever thinking of
We was young and in love
We was young and in love
And you are the only girl
I am ever thinking of
You Didn't Mean Anything to Me Lyrics
[Intro]
You didn't mean anything to me
You didn't mean anything to me
[Verse 1]
Skies were cloudy everyday
Nothing wanted to grow
We had our last chance
I think I told you so
Every dinner was crummy
Nothing was on T.V
I was ready to pack it up
Our heads were so achy
[Chorus]
You did not mean anything to me
You did not mean anything to me
[Verse 2]
We got to get away
Another lawn to mow
We had our last chance
I think I told you so
Ever dinner was crummy
Even the ones for free
I was ready to pack it up
Forget the agony
[Chorus]
You did not mean anything to me
You did not mean anything to me
[Verse 3]
Everybody was cranky
Even the maids were mean
We ran into a miracle
There was beer in the soda machine
Every dinner was crummy
Even the ones for free
I was ready to pack it up
Forget the agony
[Chorus]
You did not mean anything to me
You did not mean anything to me
Come on Now Lyrics
[Chorus]
Come on now
Come on now
We got no wheels to race
Come on now
Come on now
Police are every place
Come on now
Come on now
We got no skirts to chase
[Verse 1]
I am just a junk food guy
Now I am telling you why
I am living at the matinee, yeah
I just want to sleep and play
Come on now
Come on now
When the folks are not around
[Chorus]
Come on now
Come on now
Nagging about the sound
Come on now
Come on now
[Verse 2]
To turn that racket down
I am just a comic book boy
There is nothing scary to enjoy
Freak admission stroll inside
I was born on a roller coaster ride
[Chorus]
Come on now
Come on now
Police are every place
Come on now
Come on now
We got no skirts to chase
[Verse 3]
I am just a comic book boy
There is nothing scary to enjoy
Freak admission stroll inside
I was born on a roller coaster ride
[Outro]
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah come on now
This Business Is Killing Me Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I'm sick to death
A nervous wreck
This business is killing me, you know
This business is killing me, You know
It's really killing me, yeah
I'm sick to death
A nervous wreck
This business is killing me, you know
This business is killing me, you know
It's really killing me, yeah
[Chorus]
Oh no, oh no, oh no, Oh no
Oh no, oh no
Oh no, oh no, oh no
Oh no ho
This business is killing me
And so they say
[Verse 2]
Run around, run around
Love giving you the runaround
It really makes you crazy
Run around, run around
Love giving you the runaround
[Chorus]
Oh no, oh no, oh no, Oh no
Oh no, oh no
Oh no, oh no, oh no
Oh no ho
This business is killing me
And so they say
Hey, hey
[Verse 3]
You work, you work
You write all night
Until the early morning light
Can't please all the people all the time
All the people all the time
But then they don't please me
Well, I can't take it no more
No, I can't take it no more
Run around, run around
Love giving you the runaround
It really makes you crazy
Run around, run around
Love giving you the runaround
Oh no, oh no, oh no, Oh no
Oh no, oh no
Oh no, oh no, oh no
Oh no ho
This business is killing me
And so they say
Hey, hey
You work, you work
You write all night
Until the early morning light
Can't please all the people all the time
All the people all the time
But then they don't please me
[Outro]
Well, I can't take it no more
No, I can't take it
Sitting in My Room Lyrics
[Verse]
Sitting in my room
Record player on
Sitting in my room
Humming a sickening tune
Sitting in my room
Something to do soon
We know what we think of them
The problems just keep piling in
They got complains about everything
It is us against them
It is us against them
It is us against them
They just want to worry
That is not what any kid
Should have to do
They just want to be so lame
Maybe they should
Try and sniff some glue
